After nearly a decade of teaching at a tech school, I realized that I should start teaching more advanced students. So I quit. Now I teach the 3rd grade. Those tech students had driven me to the edge of sanity. To keep from falling off, I became a stand up comic. My very first time I was on stage, I was voted into the semi finals of a comedy competition. I have hosted Bill Word´s "Ultimate Laff Down". I have performed at Flappers Comedy Club and at The Comedy Store. I found that my true calling is making fun of myself: a Jewish Nerd. My comedy centers on Jewish Jokes and Techie Fan Boy humor.
